Get What You Want


UK-based indie band The Manatees comes to Wolf in a Suit once more and they deliver sonic gold with their latest, say hello to "Get What You Want". With this refreshingly stunning mix of melodies and lyrics they give life to a world so human and so raw. It's a track that embraces the fragile nature of our human condition in a way that is not only exciting, but quite intoxicating and inviting. It knows how to make sure we feel it click as we realize the verses hold words that could easily be ours.

"Get What You Want" is a banger, a stunning musical creation that understands the power of music and how it can be personal yet so welcoming and universal. The way in which in the soundscape comes together makes it feel so vivid and lush, caressing our senses and speaking to our very souls. It just works, from start to end, from the moment you press play, it hits home and feels as much yours as it is theirs. So listen closely and fall prey to the honest caress of this contemporary must-listen gem. Enjoy!

“‘Get What You Want’ is a bit of a contradiction. It oozes attitude and borders on aggression at points. The choruses are vocally stacked and powerful. Despite its intense energy, the song is actually about insecurity, feeling insufficient for the people around you. I certainly have days, in periods more often than not where I don’t feel good enough. My confidence fluctuates a lot, I think that’s all part of being human. I love the fact the song doesn’t let up, it’s like a hard shell to the self-doubt within it.”

Jay Harris of The Manatees about "Get What You Want"
